Ryanair has carried out its threat to scrap services
\nbetween London and Brussels’ Charleroi airport, in an
\nescalation of its battle with the European commission over
\nillegal state aid from the Belgian authorities. In its
\nsummer schedule, it was revealed that its eight daily
\nflights between the two cities would end on April 29.
\nRyanair blamed the EC’s ruling this month that the
\nairline’s landing deal at Charleroi was illegal. Rivals say
\nthat the route may have been hit by competition from rival
\nairlines and Eurostar.<\/p>\n
Ryanair has banned eight passengers for life for
\ncompromising passenger and crew safety by smoking on board.
\nThe eight people were on different flights, and all cases
\nhave been referred to police.<\/p>\n
Never let it be said that we are always horrible about
\nRyanair. Here’s a website where you can see some
\npositive comments about our friend: http:\/\/www.ciao.co.uk\/ryanair_com__77254
\nThis website allows you to enter your views, pros and cons
\nabout using Ryanair. All three of the pros that the Beetle
\nsaw when she looked at it were to do with price –
\nit’s cheap, the cons say impractical deals, no meals
\non board and a slow website.<\/p>\n
For the sake of balance, here’s another website
\nwhere you can record your own Ryanair misery story:
\nStories include luggage not being on the same flight as the
\npassenger and all the hassle involved in getting some sort
\nof recompense from Ryanair, money taken without
\nconfirmation and comments about the way Ryanair operate
\n– little things, like using premium rate telephone
\nnumbers if you want to contact them and lack of e-mail
\naddress. It’s sober reading.<\/p>\n
